After We're Dead lyrics

If you don't mind and have time to spare Lend me just a moment before we're thin air Between now and then: A brief interruption of nothing We were just here a moment ago I lost track for just a moment and found myself all alone I left you some songs, some rights and wrongs Some trivial words, some pain and some joy Some blame and some praise, the sum of my days All these stories, they must end After our storytellers are dead And the songs we have sung lose their tune Share my stories, joke with friends Talk about me long after I'm dead And I promise the same thing for you Just like the first time I told you I loved you High on cocaine and all my thoughts of you These hidden gems: A brief celebration of nothing We were just there a moment ago We lost track for only a moment And found ourselves hand in hand We wrote some words that cry to be heard That want to endure, that want to spill blood That want to breathe life, that want to be loved
